Look around for metal car kits, may need to add “vintage” to the search. In my younger years, I remember working on some. Always old styles and usually what I’d call pot metal.
Oh, welcome to our world!

Hi Matt! Welcome to MSC! Glad to have you aboard! You can find the "Snap Kits" at Local Hobby Stores, Hobby Lobbys and even Walmarts. Hobby Lobby sometimes has a 40% off sale that keeps the cost down. You can find them on line at Squadron and Megahobby and other sites. Snap-Kits are a great way to start in the hobby. Take your time building after reading over the instructions at least once to familiarize yourself with the parts and where they go. I've been building models since I was 6 years old. I'm 83 now and still learning lots of things from the members of this and other forums. If you have any problems or questions with building a kit just ask for help. Stay safe. Jim

Welcome to MSC Matt. Seems the other guys already got you covered. Many opportunities to create a stash of unbuilt snap-kits for a lifetime.

For just starting out, the snap tite kits are the way to go. It’s the best way to acquaint yourself with the hobby. They’re fun to build to. Glad to see you’re here. Now go out ,buy some kiits and start building.😉
